I have a 2005 4WD Expeditions that I just added a leveling kit and re-did the suspension and more. Replace all 4 corners.
Now that everything has settled in I am getting a creaking sound when turning (Forward or reverse) Had mechanic re-tighten everything and grease and still have creaking sound (Mechanic say thats probably normal with the lift) Only thing is that the creaking sounds like it only coming from the Drivers side.
One last thing when going over speed bumps or when off roading the suspension makes bang noise as if strut package has some space to move.
Under normal conditions the truck drives great smooth no pull. Plus very happy with the look.
Here is the parts that were replaced over two days.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated
Leveling Kit: F 3 1/2 R 2 1/2
Timken Wheel Bearings
Bilstein Shocks
Moog Constant rate springs and mounting hardware
Motorcraft upper control Arms and Lower ball joints
Moog stability bar ends plus inner and out tierod end (K-series NOT RK)
Brake rotors and extreme pads plus brake lines
Tires: Toyo Open Country R/T 35" on Method Silver 17 x 8.5 wheels.
Check sway bar link ends. Had a Caddy Deville that also made a loud bang when going over speed bumps and when turning. Drivers side link end was bad.
